Reverse Confetti: Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge

I’m playing along in the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Clearly Christmas with a card created with some newly released Reverse Confetti supplies.

For my card, I was inspired by the colors of blue, green, white and silver. And of course the Christmas theme.

Reverse Confetti: Curtain Call Inspiration ChallengeI cut the chevrons with the Triple Chevies Confetti Cuts die and adhered them to a white base. I did this three times and then cut the panels into strips. When I attached the strips to the card base, I rotated the one in the middle 180 degrees so that there would be a zig zag pattern. I cut the snowflakes with the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts dies. I cut each size twice and adhered them for extra depth. I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments in silver.

Reverse Confetti – Color Throwdown #321

Today I’m sharing a card created with a Reverse Confetti Confetti Cut and stamp set sentiment for the Color Throwdown #321 Challenge.

I was totally intrigued by this color combination – it’s not one that I would have thought of on my own, which is one of the things that make these challenges so fun!

I used the Reverse Confetti Circle Garland to cut six garlands in the brown cardstock, three in the brushed silver and three in the brushed gold. I glued the metallic garlands to the dark brown ones for some depth.

I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the Tinsel ‘N Trim set.

Hope your holiday preparations are going smoothly and that your tinsel isn’t in a tangle!

Taylored Expressions Holiday Neighborhood

Today I’m sharing a holiday card featuring the Taylored Expressions Neighborhood Border die.

I decided to keep the colors simple, as if the neighborhood had recently been carpeted with snow (and from the looks of the dry embossed background, it’s still snowing!). I backed the neighborhood border die cuts and the evergreen die cuts with a soft yellow cardstock. I almost always include a sentiment on the card front, but decided to leave it off this time to preserve the tranquility!

Hope your first week of December has been humming along – I can’t believe how fast this fall is flying by!

I’m linking up to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge – the theme this week is Holidays and Christmas.
